Psalm 10:17

A Prayer For God To Throw Down The Wicked

¹⁶ The Lord is King forever and ever;
Nations have perished from His land.
¹⁷ O Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble;
You will strengthen their heart, You will incline Your ear
¹⁸ To vindicate the orphan and the oppressed,
So that man who is of the earth will no longer cause terror.
